I want to read part 2.......... that is the part where you tell me how to find the right man for me!AND that would probably start with get away from this podunk little town......... THANK YOU FOR YOUR ADVICE.........YOUR MY BIG BROTHER.......

Hi.... I just read your profile, and of course know that I do not fit your age group, but maybe Ishould help, if possible. SO, just an opinion, but maybe most women your age do not want to "HANG OUT" . You are being honest, and that may be your downfall. Otherwise, your profile looks the same as most of the literate ones here. (Maybe put that you would consider long term or something after awhile). Now, tell me how to avoid the sleazy guys here.........like what is the best photo without looking like a slut?

As I see it , society has changed so much in the past fifty years.Whereas roles were clearly defined and family orientated, now many woman have had the wonderful opportunity to raise children and maintain a career. I am fifty now, and have a daughter still at home. No man extended anything in the way of support. Not all men are this way, I know many just the opposite.However, this is my case. So, whenever I have more free time to devote to a relationship, why should I marry to simply give away half of all I worked so hard for...my house, my retirment, so and on.Perhaps my(furture) husband will divorce me in eleven years after marriage, and in this state, that means half of everything... after all this time on my own...after buying and painting my house, building my porch, mowing my own lawn and all that.........why give anything away?
